A history of UFOs in Oregon has yet to be written, but in the meantime you can refer to a Keynote presentation that your Oregon State Director and Assistant State Director gave in Coos Bay, Oregon, in 2007. This presentation gives you the basics with some classic cases in Oregon's early history along with some more recent ones.
- The 1947 Kenneth Arnold sighting in nearby south central Washingtion.
- The 1950 Trent family UFO photographs in McMinnville, Oregon.
